BARROLEVÉN

DECEMBER 13 – JANUARY 6 2019

WITHIN AND BEYOND

The exhibition Within and Beyond has emerged in the interplay between two artists and in dialogue between their artistry. BarroLevén’s starting point is a society in which efficiency and productivity are highly valued, a society in which pauses disappear all too easily, and space for existential questions and needs along with them. Sweden currently faces major health issues with rising sick leave numbers due to stress-related illness. The causes are complex and stress in life is nothing new, but one of the changes seems to be that recovery no longer comes to us naturally. How can the artistic voice through glass contribute to spaces for rest and recovery in today’s urban environment?
